Answer:

Weathering is of two types called chemical weathering and physical weathering. In a physical or a mechanical weathering process, soil and rocks break down when pressure, heat, ice and water come in contact with conditions in the atmosphere directly.

Answer:

Weathering is the process that changes solid rock into sediments. Sediments were described in the Rocks chapter. With weathering, rock is disintegrated. It breaks into pieces.
